Serving Las Vegas Families

Family-owned pest and termite control serving homeowners across the Las Vegas valley since 2010.

How our valley business began

Ruben Castillo was born and raised in Las Vegas and spent six years working as a pest control technician across local neighborhoods. In 2010, he purchased one service truck and started Whiptail Pest & Termite to serve homeowners directly.

The company has grown over the years to a team of ten licensed technicians working across the valley. Every technician is background checked, field trained and wears a company uniform on job sites.

His daughter Ana runs the office today, handling customer service calls and scheduling appointments for homeowners throughout our service area.

Why we are named after a desert lizard

The western whiptail is a slim, long-tailed lizard native to the Mojave Desert. It lives in Las Vegas valley yards and actively hunts local insects, including termites.

We chose the name because it reflects local desert wildlife and describes our daily work controlling pests around valley homes.

Dana did a blacklight inspection at night and found bark scorpions in our block wall. She treated the yard and installed weep screen guards. Now our Scorpion Plan includes visits every two months.

We needed a formal Wood Destroying Insect report to sell our house. Marco came out and inspected the slab and garage thoroughly. He sent the written report to our agent the next business day.

We heard scratching in the attic. Luis found where roof rats were getting in, sealed the entry points with steel mesh, and set traps. He came back to check the traps just like he promised.

We use the quarterly plan for ants and spiders. When we saw a few ants return near the kitchen in summer, they came back out and treated the area again at no charge.

Kim gave us a written checklist to prepare our bedrooms for bed bug treatment. She treated the furniture and baseboards, then returned about two weeks later to check for activity.

Whiptail handles the pest control for our restaurant. They schedule our service twice a month before we open. We get a written report after every visit and keep a logbook on site for audits.
